Story
Mya is a sweet, timid cat who blossoms into a very loyal and affectionate companion once you gain her trust. Mya is very vocal, and devoted to following her owner, seeking out interactions like lap snuggles, head/chin/belly rubs, and being carried. She's a professional "biscuit maker" and demands attention with head-butts. She loves chirping at birds and burrowing under covers. Though she rarely plays with toys, she occasionally gets the "zoomies." She thrives in a calm, loving home. Her timid nature makes her susceptible to bullying from other cats (has never lived with dogs). She is a persistent counter-surfer and will snatch food. Up-to-date on vet care/vaccines. Recently had 9 teeth extracted due to widespread dental disease. Sadly, I need to rehome her after 5 wonderful years due to my baby’s asthma/severe cat allergies. Unfortunately, I have another cat that I also need to rehome and the 2 cats do NOT get along.

Story
I adopted Mitch from the NE. Humane Society in 2015. He was 3 months old. I just found out he’s diabetic & needs medication which I cannot afford. (I also found out he’s got bad teeth as well). 2 years ago he had a rabies shot & also, apparently, got an infection in his right ear (I think my other cat bit him)—- that’s why he has that ‘cauliflower’ ear now. He’s VERY SHY… he has been this way for 10 years…BUT, this is the SWEETEST cat I have ever loved (I’ve had cats in my life for 60 years). He would love to have another playful cat to play with… he loves to play. My other cat has never wanted to bond with him & I have no idea why since I brought them home the same day. I would love to find a loving home & who can afford diabetes medicine because this cat has such a beautiful soul… so gentle & loving!!!!

Story
Huxley is a 6 year old loving boy that was born on a farm. He gets along well with other cats. He can be a scaredy cat, he is afraid of dogs, storms and wind. He loves to rub his head on you and always wants sleep with his people. His only behavior is when he gets too lonely, like being alone for the weekend, he pees by the door to communicate his loneliness. It only happens part of the time, but we can't find a pattern to correct the behavior. We love him dearly and would be great for someone who spends most of their time at home.
